NEW!  Dinner Fellowship Groups
Would you like to get to know members of your church family?  Would you like to meet other adults, married and single?  This is a great way to get to know the people who make up our church family!

Dinner Fellowship Groups is for married and single adults.  Groups are made up of 8-10 people.  Each group will have a "Lead Host" who will host the first dinner and assure that the group continues to meet through out the year.  Group members will take turns "hosting" the group usually in their home and will choose the menu, with group members bringing a side dish. 

Fellowship Groups will meet five times a year, usually February, April, July, September and November.  Each group will choose their date, time and location.

Fellowship Groups are forming now.  For more information or to join a group, sign up on Sundays in Wesley Hall or contact, Rev. Susan Bryan at sbryan@fumccoppell.org.

Knitting:  More Stick, More String
This is a beginning 6-week knitting class.  Knitting demonstrates that much of what we do in life is really a do-over and that every mistake is actually an opportunity to learn.  We will learn to do the only two stitches that matter in knitting:  the knit and the purl.  At the end, we may have a scarf, a washcloth, or just a good laugh at ourselves.  We will also, hopefully, form new friendships.

• Sundays, 3:30-5:00 pm in room 301
• Bring: one set of knitting needles ina size 7 or 8 (not double points) and one skein of worsted weight yarn in a very light color
• Class size is limited to 5 and must be 18 years old or older
• Led by Pam Dickinson-Noris
